All the major leaders” of the Taliban opposition in Southern Afghanistan are former Guantanamo prisoners who have been released, U.S. Rep. Mark Kirk (R-Ill.) said Thursday.
That is among the things the U.S. Naval Reserve Intelligence officer learned on his holiday deployment to Afghanistan, he told an audience at Chicago’s Union League Club Thursday.
“What I hear is that the released Guantanamo prisoners are the toughest ones to crack, the most committed to jihad,” Kirk said. “So I am urging the administration not to release any more prisoners.”
Kirk’s position as a congressman and a Naval Intelligence officer with security clearance puts him in a unique position to deploy to war zones while congress is not in session. Politically, it also helps his status as the front-runner in Illinois’ Republican primary election for the U.S. Senate seat held by Barack Obama.

So, we again see a broken clock giving the right time.
Mark Kirk is wrong all the rest of the time.
Why not? They learned our military’s system of doing things and they most likely learned American English. All they need is a haircut and new clothes to blend in with the population.
Never ever forget...GITMO did NOT exist BEFORE 9/11.
Islamofascist are the problem.
did the guy that murdered the CIA agents ever spend a day in Gitmo....NOOOOOOO.
Well, if I have to choose to believe that, or let’s see, that this is the most transparent administration in the history of the world ...
So instead of a recruiting tool for AlQaeda, Gitmo is more of a finishihg school for jihadists. And just think , when they move the jihad prison to Illinois it will be much easier to teach them ‘the Chicago way.’
You idiots.
So, Mark Kirk, what do you thing about transplanting Gitmo into NW Illinois, not far from your home district?
PS: are you gay?
Mark Kirk is for:
- US taxpayer subsidized condoms to Mexizo
- Cap and Trade for the environment (Voted FOR it as a Republican)
- Is endorsed by all the major Chicagoland newspapers
- Is Pro-Choice
- Is a member of the United Church of Christ (the first “major church” that publicly supported “equal marriage rights for all”)
Illinois does not need another liberal in Washington.
Me? I'd've dropped 'em all off in Afghanistan.
Yep, one at a time, from the back of a C-130 at 15,000' over the mountains of Afghanistan. Er, and uh... no parachute, of course. The Taliban could've seen to their cab fare back to to Iraq, Yemen, Somalia, the U.K., the West Bank, the Bronx, or wherever the hell else they might've come from.

These graduates of Guantanamo University have most likely reverted to terrorism because they were not given an opportunity to attend art school. Yes, art school therapy, obviously the recommendation of an Ivy League intellect. All experts agree that this is all George Bush’s fault. Remember these young men were released under Bush’s watch when he bowed to pressure from his extreme right wing and against the strenuous objections of the ACLU.
The List, ping
Well they did get that letter of recommendation from the dear leader
jihad bump
US taxpayer subsidized condoms to Mexico means fewer potential illegal immigrants. That’s a bad thing?
Hey Doofus...it means more illegals will bring the condoms back to the US and sell them on the street at a discount!
